Rocketmiles – 500 bonus air miles with various airlines for existing users (3000 for new users)
Rocketmiles is a hotel booking website that we’ve featured on several occasions in the past. In short, it awards you air miles for hotel bookings. You can then choose one of a number of airline frequent flyer programmes (including Avios, AAdvantage and Etihad Guest) to apply these miles to.
Rocketmiles users earn an average (apparently) of 5000 miles on each hotel booking.
However, Rocketmiles is currently offering bonus miles via a quiz promotion. Existing users who successfully answer the five quiz questions will get 500 bonus miles on bookings made before the end of 12 December 2014 (US Central Time). If you are an existing user, this is worth taking advantage of should you need to make a booking. However, new users should ignore the quiz and sign up via this link, as the sign-up bonus here is an additional 3000 miles. Plus, the 12 December deadline does not apply. You cannot combine the 3000 point sign-up bonus and the 500 point quiz bonus.
We couldn’t possibly give you the answers to the quiz, but here is a screenshot of it:
As ever, our advice with Rocketmiles is to compare their rates and the points you will get with other rates available. You can get a good deal, particularly where bonus miles are involved, but don’t be blindly seduced by the miles – shop around.
